What’s up everyone? I hope you all have had a good week, and are finding your way, where ever you are out there. Right now let’s listen to the Song of the Week. This time I chose a song that addresses so many relevant issues. It’s Vic Mensa’s “Time Is Money” featuring Rockie Fresh, produced by Boi-1da and Maven Boys. First off, the production on this one is divine, and its divine quality so perfectly matches the message of the song. Vic talks on his come up, coexisting in a place that’s full of corruption, and understanding what matters most. There are many ways to avoid the truth. But the truth cannot be denied forever. We live on a world that revolves around the Sun, but we live in a world that revolves around money. In society it is easy to forget that we are all equally human. We all need, want, and dream. Yet there is separation amongst us that is created by our wealth, or lack of it. We’ve lost a sense for what is real, and what truly matters. Pain and suffering, poverty and hunger, violence and discrimination; these are real human issues. Rockie rhymes on the glory of earning too, but recognizes that his voice is an instrument that has the power to motivate people who need it. Money cannot save you from reality of the world. “Make money, but the money you make don’t make you.” Nothing can save your soul, except your soul itself. Make money, but remember that no matter how much your wealth amounts to, it doesn’t define who you are. Souls are blind, and they hold no material things. Use your mind, and your money for good. Use your life, cater to your well-being, and give to those who are in need, in any way that you can. Listen below, and as always Stay Positive!
